hello,
the headaches seem to be associated with neurological symptoms in your case. it will be good that you start some drug to avoid headaches for long time. Your problems seem to be directly related to occurance of headache and not otherwise. so, if you have not, start the medicine for it.
In my clinical practice I have seen dosulepin working like magic in such cases. along with it one has to depend on a good pain killer for acute episodes of headaches...like- rizatriptana or injectable pain killers: diclofenac sodium 75 mg with metocloperamide. But the necessity of this SIS medicine will reduce significantly over time when the main drug is adjusted according to the patients requirement.
Hope the reply is useful for you
